I find severe bent toward literary and genre fiction among most booktubers really tiresome, so seeing any youtuber who's reading more non-fiction is a breath of fresh air.
At the same time, it's a reminder of just how many books are out there, how many schools of thought and fields of study, and how we all get caught up in our own bubbles.

Because pseuds don't like the fact that Sowell is an economist who actively rejects socialism. B.E. isn't particularly good but it IS a decent introduction to economics for non-economists, without oversimplifying. The most polemical it gets is saying "This particular issue happens because of this economic thing, which people should stop doing."

First, it's a personal warfare against communism and government regulations. If you buy this book, expect hundreds of pages of ramblings about how shitty communism was, how shitty the government and unions are and how awesome a free and unregulated market is. Don't get me wrong, this are valid opinions and he often has good arguments but I don't think an intro textbook to economics should be this heavily biased. Second, he doesn’t interact with mainstream economics, and he misrepresents the current state of economic research.

If you really want to get into economics, read Economics by Krugman or Principles of Economics by Mankiw.

Yes I did and he basically puts those points on repeat for over 700 pages. No really, if you want to get into economics, buy another book and not this steaming pile of shit from an ex-commie trying to cope because he was let down by Daddy Marx.

Paperbird is the best. I like Jonny Keen although I remember some didn't enjoy him very much around here, TheBookchemist is also good. Leaf by leaf reviews some very interesting books which don't always get much attention in the anglosphere. There are some cute girls with good taste but I won't name them because this board gets dangerously autistic around women.

I read it and I don't remember much of that at all. Instead the book continually emphasized approaching problems with an "incentive and tradeoff" mindset as opposed to the "problems and solutions" mindset which leads to bad policies that don't solve the problems that purport to, like the minimum wage or price caps. There's not a lot of talk about communism in this book and in others dedicated to Marxism, Sowell is actually very respectful while pointing out legitimate problems.

This idea that somebody could be unbiased is ridiculous because the truth matters. No matter what an author is going to favor what he thinks is true and Sowell is no exception to this. People that haven't read the books assume they he's some libertarian character throwing about unfair polemics but this really isn't the case and I think you would be pleasantly surprised if you would actually pick up the books you're criticizing.

That's a cute reason I guess, but know that the meaning of this apparently amusing custom is to remind the groom that even on the happiest day of his life, he can't be fully happy, unless the Temple of Jerusalem is restored.
